Expert Storytelling
This is an important story in our history. I couldn’t resist finding excuses to plug back in to binge all 10 episodes! Zayd Dohrn generously presents his own unique perspective, and his access to the voices of the Weather Underground to fill in where reporting and media fail.

This series delivers a straight forward detailed account of the this movement from young organizers, to prison escapes, robberies, disparity of privilege, family life as fugitives, and so much loss. Zayd lets the members of the movement and their families recount their experiences, and the personal interviews with his extraordinary family members were such captivating conversations about struggle that I may have to listen again!
